The observations re. trees is very relevant. Much of the Bonney Lake area has tall fir, cedar and other similar size trees. I'm in the greater Seattle area also, 120' fir is quite common.
If the ANT-751 is not obstructed by trees it should do quite well. If obstructed, you might find some relief by going to a larger antenna, the Winegard HD7698P would not be overkill if you have no means to get above or around the trees. (The down-side of the larger antennas is that they are so directional that you may find that you don't get to have a single aim point that provides reliable reception of all the available signals.)
On the other hand, if you're in a development with neighboring buildings close in, you'll need to find a way to avoid aiming the antenna into neighboring structures. Roof mounting with a tripod and 10' mast section would be an obvious option. The goal being to get above the roof line of nearby buildings.

Reason: neighboring structures
